APPLICATION The Solar Model 9354-1 and 9354-2 Transient Generators were especially designed for the performance of a variety of pulse susceptibility tests on subsystems and/or equipment, in accordance with MIL-STD-461E/F, Method CS116; also capable of limited testing for RTCA DO-160D, Section 22. DESCRIPTION The Model 9354-1 and 9354-2 Transient Generators provide nine selectable waveforms, including six damped sinusoidal pulses (10 kHz, 100 kHz, 1 MHz, 10 MHz, 30 MHz, and 100 MHz) and three double exponential pulses (6.4 µS, 70 µS, 500 µS on Model 9354-1. The Model 9354-2 also has three double exponential pulses (6.4 µS, 70 µS, and 120 µS). Auto pulsing of the sinusoidal repetition rate is internally adjusted from 0.5 to 1.0 pulse per second. A front panel-mounted pushbutton can be used to manually trigger single pulses. The peak amplitude of the selected output pulse is adjustable as a percentage of the charge voltage. The six damped sinusoidal waveforms were designed to meet the requirements of MIL-STD-461E/F, Method CS116. Continuous tunable frequencies can be obtained by the use of the optional variable frequency modules. The 1 MHz, 10 MHz, and the three double exponential pulses were designed to provide pre-compliance testing of RTCA DO-160D, Section 22. Table 2 lists the test levels that can be achieved from the Models 9354-1 and 9354-2.
